RESUMO

A contribuição dos Portugueses para a divulgação do tabaco no mundo ocorreu no século XVI. Às folhas desta planta originária da América foram atribuídas propriedades curativas pelo médico espanhol Nicolas Monardes. Só em meados do século XX foi possível demonstrar a actividade patogénica do tabaco. Desde então, têm-se multiplicado as evidências da sua nocividade em múltiplas patologias, particularmente cardiovascular e pulmonar. A relativa aceitabilidade social do tabaco em alguns países, como Portugal, e a dependência que lhe está associada limitam a luta antitabágica. Os custos do tabaco, económicos e para a saúde, têm levado à formulação de diversas recomendações com o objectivo de tratar esta dependência. As grandes orientações destas recomendações passam pela necessária sensibilização e motivação dos fumadores para a cessação tabágica, e pela administração de meios farmacoterapêuticos eficazes adjuvantes da abstinência ao tabaco. Este trabalho aborda a problemática da utilização destes fármacos, em particular a terapêutica de substituição da nicotina e a bupropiona, e relembra a necessidade de implementar uma política de saúde vocacionada para a prevenção primária.

ABSTRACT

In the XVI century the Portuguese have contributed to the introduction of tobacco in the world. The tobacco plant came from America and its therapeutic properties were attributed to the leaves by a Spanish physician. The pathogenic effects of tobacco were shown only in the middle of the XX century. Since then many reports have demonstrated the harmful role of tobacco in several diseases, particularly in cardiovascular and pulmonary areas. The still existing relatively good social acceptability of tobacco in some countries, namely Portugal, and the associated dependence have limited the fight against smoking. The concerns related to the health and economic costs associated to tobacco consumption leaded to the formulation of several guidelines addressing the treatment of tobacco dependence. Such guidelines are aimed to sensitise and motivate the smokers to the smoking cessation, and to recommend effective medicinal products which may help in the tobacco abstinence. The objective of this paper is to describe and explore the use of these drugs, in particular nicotine replacement therapy and bupropion, and to remind the need to implement a health policy directed to the primary prevention of tobacco consumption.
